    Default SuperStar Customs does the Engine Bay!

    Some more of Bucky's handywork:

    So here is a total list of what was done to dress my engine bay up some:

    Paint and Airbrush "VW Fast" Theme:
    - Valve Cover
    - Intake Manifold
    - Rear Firewall Cover
    - Battery Cover
    - Power Steering Cover
    Polish:
    - All engine bay caps (they used to just be aluminum, but are now a nice shine)
    - Intake (it was all scratched up from me test fitting it)
    - Top of Intake Manifold
    - One of the hard AC lines behind the intake
    Paint:
    - Coolant Tank
    - Windshield Washer Fluid Tank
    - Timing Belt Cover
    - Dipstick
    Chrome:
    - Replaced the bolts on the Valve cover and a few other random ones with new chrome nuts and bolts

    I think that is all of it, the engine bay is pretty much complete now. There are still a few other little things I want to do to dress it up some more, but I finally have a nice "showy" engine.

    First is an overall picture of the whole engine bay:



    Here is the power steering cover:



    Side shot:



    The freshly polished intake, and you can see the hard AC line all nice and polished up too:



    The rear firewall:



    One of my Fasts



    An autograph:



    The top of the manifold all polished up:



    Painted coolant tank:



    Here you can see some of the chrome hardware:



    That is all the pics for now.

    What does everyone think?

    It does look much better in person. The gloss black is hard to see and the sun was reflecting off the silver. There is a lot more detail if you look closely, but my camera skills suck.
